Making a UDP time request (port 37) to RH4.0 doesn't work. I've got the
following line in my inetd.conf:

time   dgram   udp     wait    nobody  /usr/sbin/tcpd  in.timed

And the result when a UDP request comes in is:

inetd[166]: time/udp server failing (looping), service terminated

TCP requests come in and I've got the following line:

time    stream  tcp     nowait  nobody  /usr/sbin/tcpd  in.timed

and that works fine. Does the in.timed with RH4.0 support UDP? Seems like
that might be the problem.

The device that's making the UDP request is a piece of networking gear,
so I can't easily change it to use TCP. Instead, I need to find a
UDP-capable time daemon.

Anyone have any ideas?
